I read the following article in "aufstieg" (German for "ascent"), magazine of the Wurttemberg Naturfreunde*), who on their part had taken it over from "Zeitung gegen den Krieg" (German for "Newspaper Against the War"). We present it in a slightly shortened form. HPS* |

September 11 |

This day people willl never forget: How the planes attack the pride of the metropolis, how fire and smoke chase people out of the rubbish, how mercilessly the pilots ... kill the innocent victims and how the President stands up against the murderers .. and how he is brought down with no inhibitions at all. The
whole action cost way in excess of 5,000 deaths. It is September
11, 1973 and the name of the country is Chile, the city is Santiago and
the President Salvador Alliende. Unlike Double-U Bush he was
democratically elected with a good majority and he had dared expropriate,
on a legal basis and against remuneration, copper mines of the US
company Anaconda. Only those in Chile, of course. Subsequently some
major companies in the US recommended the attack on the presidential
palace and the coup in Chile ... The killer- and torture commandos
for the coup were trained in the US as Special Forces and elite units. Money,
plan and mandate came from Washington; ... The secret conspirator in the
background, the mastermind and top rogue, the money source and patron
was then US-Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger, who wrote his
dissertation as historian about Bismarck's secret diplomacy. Because
in this case meanwhile evidence is available that Kissinger was directly
involved in the murder of a Chilean general who was not willing to join
the coup a court trial against him has been taking place in
South-America since one year ago. No question that the murderer with a
docterate refuses to appear in court. And, of course, no south-American
government will send an expedition army .. to the US to
apprehend him and bring him to justice for - that is the morale of
this story - they do not have the power to do it. Nevertheless,
however, the democratic public took up the case ; there came up new
research, newspaper articles and books about it, e.g. Christopher
Hitchen "Die Akte Kissinger" (The Kissinger File). This
example is meant to say: Real justice is not brought about by those who
can afford it chasing and killing their enemies while the others have to
give in to everything. Real justice means establishing a world economic
order which does not sentence to starvation one half of mankind. Dr.
